Whether a product is a powder, tablet, liquid or suspension; particle size, shape, surface charge, and molecular weight and rheological properties can all have a significant impact on product performance and quality. While some of these individual physical properties may be critical for a specific application, it is often their interplay which is responsible for defining the complex behavior required for market acceptance in many consumer products.
